Do Single‐Sex STEM Programs Have Merit? If So, for Whom, on What Measures?

Science Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Single‐sex STEM programs—defined here as voluntary, gender‐segregated extracurricular or supplemental activities (e.g., summer camps, workshops, robotics clubs, internships, or citizen science initiatives)—have experienced heightened popularity and scrutiny amid efforts to increase diversity in STEM fields.

Are non‐economic goals and financial performance friends or foes in hybrid ventures? A duality perspective on academic spin‐offs

Strategic Entrepreneurship Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary This study draws on the behavioral theory of the firm and a duality perspective to investigate the impact of founders' focus on academic goals on the financial performance of academic spin‐offs (ASOs)—a specific type of hybrid venture. We theorize that such relationship follows an inverse U‐shaped curve and is moderated by the

A Quantised Push‐Sum Distributed Adaptive Momentum Algorithm for Optimisation Over Directed Networks

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, we investigate a distributed constrained optimisation problem over directed networks. The agents in the networks conduct local computations and communications, endeavouring to collaboratively minimise the aggregation of all locally known convex cost functions subject to a global constraint set.

Effects of dopamine on reducing salt stress damage in pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) at morphological, physiological, biochemical, and molecular levels

Annals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
Salt stress causes oxidative and osmotic stress, resulting in decreased nutrient uptake, plant growth, and photosynthetic rate. This study suggests that foliar application of dopamine can reduce salinity‐induced oxidative damage in pepper plants by altering antioxidant activity, biochemical, and molecular responses.

Accounting &Finance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The empirical results indicate that an increase in interest rates may stimulate a significant and persistent stock price bubble, which is consistent with rational asset price bubble theory. This finding suggests that central banks should implement anti‐turbulent monetary policy with caution, since inappropriate tightening may unintentionally ...

Assessing the link between social capital and health outcomes in the Italian regions: An empirical analysis

Annals of Public and Cooperative Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract An extensive literature demonstrates a positive relationship between social capital and health. However, empirical analyses within the Italian context remain limited. This study contributes to the existing literature by expanding the empirical evidence on this topic for Italy, employing an ecological approach.

A tutorial for understanding SEM using R: Where do all the numbers come from?

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Structural equation modeling (SEM) is often seen as a complex and difficult method, especially for those who want to understand how the numbers in SEM software output are actually computed. Although many open‐source SEM tools are now available—especially in the R programming environment—looking into their source code to understand the ...

Mesh Processing Non‐Meshes via Neural Displacement Fields

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Mesh processing pipelines are mature, but adapting them to newer non‐mesh surface representations—which enable fast rendering with compact file size—requires costly meshing or transmitting bulky meshes, negating their core benefits for streaming applications.
